Syrenka statue in the Old Town illuminated at night

Fascinating night image of the Syrenka, the legendary warrior mermaid symbol of Warsaw for over four centuries. The bronze statue depicts a female figure with a fish tail fiercely wielding a sword in her right hand and a shield in her left, ready to defend the city according to ancient legend. Positioned on a pedestal in the Old Town Market Square, the mermaid is illuminated by golden light that enhances its sculptural details, while in the background the colorful facades of the reconstructed buildings create a fairytale atmosphere. This symbol appears in the city coat of arms and represents the indomitable spirit of Warsaw, a city that like its mermaid has always known how to rise again.
